College football and the recruitment of middle school players... - 3 days ago
Click on link...worthwhile to view the video and pics. How one 'ridiculous' tactic took over college football recruiting Pete Thamel,Yahoo Sports•July 12, 2018 THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. – Nearly a month ago at a football camp in Southern California, Colorado State’s coaching staff became intrigued by a quarterback known as “Baby Cam.” The Rams coaches hovered around Maalik Murphy, a 6-foot-by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com

I Agree on guaranteed money... - 3 days ago
And if it were 5 years from now, they would have to fully guarantee the contract for a player of Donald's caliber. I see the tip players getting 100% guarantees...and as the article about Gurkey mentioned, the players will be looking for that in the next CBA...although I don't think they get it. Great players will but via one on one negotiation.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com

$23-24 million a year. And, no matter what people think, he worth every penny. I'll state again...IMO...this team doesn't get past round 1 in the playoffs without him.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com

How many safeties will be on the market next year... - 6 days ago
I wonder, if in hindsight, the Rams brass realizes, based on market collapse for the position, that maybe, just maybe, they could have had Joyner for less and long term. I'm thinking Joyner is gone after this year...especially if Cooks lights it up and Suh does what we want.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
To say it's only Joyner misses the bigger picture... - 6 days ago
It has a massive domino effect. I've been writing on this issue since January. Tagging Donald the next two years will mean we are going to likely lose other players... Those at risk in no particular order... Joyner Peters Suh Gurley Cooks Even if Donald signs, I think Joyner could be toast as a Ram after this year.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com

And ya think Donald has been underpaid for 4 years? - 10 days ago
You all act like he's trying to screw the Rams when they have been living a life of luxury with Donald for 4 years. If nothing else, Donald should be able to recoup the value he has brought to the Rams for 4 years. And it won't kill the cap. This has been explain countless times.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
I agree... - 10 days ago
I used to on the owners side but I'm no longer there. Players get hurt...die...yes DIE...early for their efforts. Yes, it's their choice. But, it's also their choice to want a guarantee. I think the time has come to put some meaningful minimum guarantee for the players.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com

Todd Gurley suggests “lockout” to get fully guaranteed deals Posted by Charean Williams on July 5, 2018, 6:47 PM EDT Todd Gurley calls for a work stoppage to get NFL players fully guaranteed deals in a new Collective Bargaining Agreement.

Yep...and it gets worse... - 11 days ago
the following year when Peters and Gurley hit free agency. It is mission critical to get Donald signed this year if they are to hold this team together for a few years. People keep saying Donald has no leverage...yeah...right. He knows when these other contracts expire. Donald may have no say over what happens to him financially...but he can disrupt the whole construction of this teamby jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
Goff needs to improve deep ball significantly.. - 11 days ago
He has underthrown the ball too many times. I think he waits to long...that is, I'm hoping, part of the maturity process...he hesitates and all too often checks down. That's where Wentz has a significant advantage over Goff...which may be attributable to the type of systems they played in college.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com

Quote..."It’s been said that Cooks was traded because Brees lacked the arm strength to take advantage of Cooks deep speed." It's been said that one can always make up excuses to fit a narrative. Maybe he was expendable since Mike Thomas is better? But no...it was Drew Brees who couldn't get the ball to Cooks. lol Let's see how everyone feels when Cooks demands $18 million nexby jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
And if Cooks isn't signed.. - 12 days ago
Not signing Watkins and trading away a #1 pick makes it a monumental bust in light of giving up a #2 the year before. Look for Cooks to be gone if Donald isn't signed and they tag Donald next year.by jemach - RamsFootballFans.com
